ppllation filled* July 18, 1912. Serial No. 710,116.

a's trat disclosed in my co-pending application, serial #560568, filed.Mayll, 1910.

In that applicationlis disclosed a machine,

consisting of. a rotatableiwheel which. turnsv on a vertical axis andcarries a series of radially4 disposed female mold sections which turnwith the wheelg core members Y are also provided' for"v the moldsections.

The mold sections and the.'cores, 'in their travel, passaloadingf'plaee, atwh-ichislocated a loading \device,by'. meansfof whicha batter is supplied to the molding devices.

After .being-v oaded, the mold -devices pass over baking burners, whichbake the contents of the molding devices to the desired degree; After'the molding devices have been carried aroundA over the heater a sufficient"-distance,` they are automaticallyopened andthe baked productisdischarged from vthe same and passes throughs trimming mechanism tov a`eonveyer which removes the trimmed'cones from the machine.

` My present invention provides a mechanism which comes into operationat the place where the concs aredischarged, from the molding devices,for oiling or greasing the. cores vduring thetime the discharged conesare passed through the trimmers on to the conveyer that takes them to anesting place.

'The oiler is mounted on a reciprocated frame andon 'its upward movementit causes the recession of the` chute that is locatedv between themolding devices and the trimmer. AThe oiler also carries a set of-par-vtition Wingsjor vanes for the chutes to divide the same into as manysections as there are cones formed in almold, and means are .prov1ded tooperate the wingsto withdraw f them while theA oiling act is in processof 5o performance.' The means l for :nesting the'cones (thel number ofsticks depending on the'. number of vcones each molding f'device isAadapted to form at a single o eration) comprises a nesting table divideby longitudinal partitions, between which partitions,

.the cones are carried by a nesting conv veyer after they are brought upby the con veyer on to which they are deposited from the trimmer, to adepression in the table where the nested sticks of cones are formed byallowing the cones to' drop bodily a short distance to a plane beneaththe entrant part of the nesting table so that the point of the next.nesting cone will freely enter the 'preceding oneand'as the succeedingcone is projected into the preceding one the nesting i conveyer'A letsgo. The cones are 4thus nested in sticks as long as may be desired:

Meansl are also provided in connection with the nesting mechanism foredecting a separation of the trimmings from the cones, The ,presentinvention also resides in those novel details of construct-ion,combination,

and arrangement oi parts, all 'of which will I be first fully describedand then be specifically pointed out in the appended claims,

The levers 189 are pivote'd to theconnecting rods 187, one of the levers 189 bein linked to a verticallypivotcd lever 188, w ich in turn is linked to the bell crank 199 asshown in Figs. 1 and 3, while the levers 192 are connected at 193 withthe lower extremities of the upper chute sections 176 and thereby forma. support for the seme.

The pusher 30 has a. connecting rod 32 whichpasses through a bearing lug 196 :indicarries a spring 197 and check nut198. The rod 32 pivots to a bell crank 199 which is vpivoted at 200 andhas its short arm provided with a roller 201 to coperetel with the issecured on the main shaft 36.

28 are radial cutting members which Serve to cut the trimmings intohalves so that they may drop clear of the knives 28.

The'oonveyer 112 has slats 295 and passes ziroimd the driving sprockets20:2. T he conveyer 112 also primes around upper spmckets 20'? and isseparated into n number of longitudinal sections, depending on thenumber of concs formed by euch mold device, i rthrough the medium ofpzirtitions 200 which i extend up to the nesting table 208 and ccntinuealong the same ns best indicated in .Fi is. 6 and 7 of the drawingslThenesting table 208 is separated from thel convcyer 112 nt 216 a. slightdistance to allow the cuttings or chips to drop through while-'the conespass from the conveyer 112 onto the table 208. The table 208 isprovided' with :e depressed portion 209 so arranged that the point ofthe cones will deliver Without catching intethe mouth of thepfccedincones as theI are moved along' the hihi, 208 by the nesting convcyer214. un rom'eyer is mounted on sprock ..p orted on Shafts 211 mounted intends to pullv the shaft 190 in a clockwise irection in Fig.'

any suitable bearings 212, and it is provided with series of spacedtransvexsed rods 215 which engage the cones nd move them along the table208 into the nesting depression 209. As the conesare delivered into oneanother in the depressedA ion of the table, the

upward incline 2 0 of the partitions 206- ged by the rods 215, and therods 215 will thereby be elevated to disenwill be en drawings. As themolding devices reach position C, the cones are dropped, into the chute176-182 and fell down until they engage the finger or cross wire 19@by'which .they are moxnentaril)I held. As vion as this act hasoccurred,v (1t bein understood of course that the molding evices are nowstationarilylocated with the open one atposition C)` the rod 174 andlever 172 come into operation to withdraw the partition wings 168 intothe dot and dash line position shown'inv Fig. 1, after which the camf167 comes into operation to cause the frame 142 to be elevated to bringthe iling cups 144 into engagement with the cores 15 to oil the same. Asthe frame 142 raises, the back plate 218 which is carried by the frame142, engeges the underside of the upper chute sectlon 176 and tends tomove it upwardly, as the chute section, however, is secured throu h theconnection 180 to pivot at 181, it will move ina counter-clockwisedirection on such pivot 118 until it arrives at y the dot and dash lineposition shown in Fig. L

In. moving from the full linev osition shown in Fig. 1 to the dot anddas line position shown in Fig. 1, or the full line position shown inFig. 2, the upper chute section 176 will cause the bell crank 177--179to be op-l erated to raise the finger 195 upwardly end permit the conesto move into the knives 28.

As this occurs, the chute 182`will be brought into the position shown infull-'lines in Fig. 3, since at this time the cam 203 comes .intoolperation to move the bell crank 199 to bring t e pusher '30 down intothe dot and dash line position in Fig. 1,v thereby pushing the conesthrough the trimmer 28 and depositing them on Athe chute 34 togetherwith the trimmings, and since the rod 188 is linked to the bell crank199 and also to the lever 189, the first said action of moving the chute182 is accomplished. After the frame 142 has moved upwardly it comesdown again to its initial position and in coming down, the upper chutesection 176 is released and is brought back by the spring 191 to thefull line position shown in Figfl. At the same full line position shownin time, the chute section 182 is restored to the Fig. 1 by the tensionof a spring, connected to lever 192, its backward movement' beinglimited `by the contact of the upper chute section 17 6 with the lowersection 182,so positioning the parts as to be ready for the nextoperation. soon as the frame. 142 has dropped to its initial position,the.arm 174 will recede tc -move the cam lever 172' in a direction torestore the wings 186 to their initial position between the sectionsofthe chute 176;

As the cones are deposited on to the conveyor 112, they are carried uptothe nesting table 208 as -before described, -and there nested intosticks ready `for packing.

While l have shown and described a.sp`e cific 'construction oftrimmings-separating and cone nesting mechanism, yet in this applicationl make no claim to such parts, per so, since such construction, per se,forms the subject matter of a divisional application.
